Ignacio our guide was very pleasant and informative during our drive time. Have him guide a better tour. Unfortunately all the shops in the town were closed, the speaker system on the boat was not completely working and not loud enough to hear the information provided. The wine tasting was not at a winery but in a rough shop were most things were over priced. I was able to by the same bottle for half the price at a grocery store.
Dear Robert, First of all, we want to thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We truly appreciate your feedback and are sorry that the tour did not fully meet your expectations. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed Ignacio’s company and knowledge during the tour—he is truly an excellent guide! Regarding your comments, we understand that the experience may not have been what you expected. We apologize if there was any misunderstanding due to translation, as we always strive to clearly communicate what is included in the tour. The experience included in this tour is a wine sampling, which is different from a wine tasting session. A wine sampling allows you to try one or more varieties of wine, providing an introduction to local flavors in a casual setting. A wine tasting session, on the other hand, typically takes place at a winery or specialized venue and involves a broader selection of wines, often paired with food such as cheeses, cured meats, or olives. We regret if this distinction was not clear beforehand. Additionally, we are sorry that some of the shops were closed during your visit. While we cannot control local store hours, we always aim to provide an enriching experience in Tigre. We have also noted your comment about the boat's speaker system and will address this with our local partners to improve future experiences. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we hope to welcome you again for a tour that exceeds your expectations. If you have any further suggestions or would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please feel free to reach out. Best regards, Sebastián Sánchez General Manager – Fontenay Tours
Covered a lot of territory. The guide was informative and we were treated to some local food for lunch. Plenty of time to walk around and see some of the local artisans. Boat tour, although recorded in five languages, also informative and gave a good overview.

Your feedback about the multilingual recording is greatly appreciated as it ensures we can cater to diverse travelers like yourself. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon!

A very relaxing and beautiful tour. Our guide Brenda knew how to explain very well the places we visited on the way to Tigre, a very nice person. During the navigation we were able to have beautiful views and ending with the wine tasting was a perfect plus. When we arrived the tasting room was full and we had to wait, but Brenda told us that it was possible to come later and gave us a ticket. Which was perfect for my husband and I since we were able to go have lunch nearby and close with the tasting. We loved everything. In addition, the attention in the office was pleasant and gave us all the confidence and security to take the tour with the agency, very professional and fun.
